Dear Jackie, Mark, Tara, Frank and Sandra,
Our heartfelt sympathy to you all. Even though we knew that Ted didn't have very long to live, it still came as a bit of a shock that the end came so quickly.
He fought a long and courageous battle with his cancer. He alone knew the pain of his suffering.,which he bore with quiet dignity.
We know that this a very sad time for you all. Our thoughts and prayers are with you . it was a blessing that you were given the time to be with him , in his last few days.
We were so pleased that we went over to Canada last year and that Ted was able to join us all on many of our family outings. We had hoped that he and you Jackie, would have been able to visit us this year here in England , but it wasn't to be.
We would ask him how he was feeling , when we were over with you both,and he would usually reply ,in his quiet way, "not so good to-day".
It was evident to us , how much he loved and cared about his family,and his delight in his grandchild Adrianna.
We weren't at the funeral, but were with you in spirit .
Much Love to you All. Jean and Derek
